I enjoy backpacking and scuba diving. As I got heavier, it became increasingly more difficult for me to be active. I tried everything and was dedicated to losing weight - but nothing worked. I didn't want to wind up with health problems. I am married and wanted to start a family. I felt as if I was losing control of my life, despite all of my efforts. I chose the LAP-BAND® because the surgery is much shorter and less risky, and recovery is quicker. I returned to work the day I was back from the hospital. Almost four years after my surgery, I am still in control of my weight and my life and enjoy every day I spend with my daughter. |

Success Story
|
Life is hard enough with the added pressure of being overweight. Two years and 115 lbs ago I had reached my breaking point. I wanted to achieve a healthier lifestyle and gain control of my weight. I work in the medical field and I was very thorough in researching my options. I chose the LAP-BAND® System because it was a non-invasive, low risk procedure with minimal recover time.
